&nbsp&nbsp Before you check out the compatibility of your Zodiac Sign with that of your mate, your lover, or your latest heartthrob, &nbsp&nbsp try taking this little quiz that I call:

How Compatible Are You?

DO YOU TALK ABOUT

Harping about a Loss through death...

YES

NO

Always talking about the one that got away?

YES

NO

Old loves; old resentments?

YES

NO

Bad treatment from another love?

YES

NO

Always trying to 'change' his/her ways?

YES

NO

I want, I want, hi ho-hi ho I want? Is it all about your needs?

YES

NO

You're honest so you say what you think, no matter what?

YES

NO

Score 0 for every no answer 1 for every yes answer

A score of 4 or less means you have a pretty good chance of making your relationship work, no matter what the stars may pronounce, as long as the other person cooperates in acting the same way. If the stars are against your match you may have an...interesting union but, it can still work.

Higher scores will find a rocky road ahead filled with pitfalls of their own making. In most cases these people never have a clue as to why they cannot keep a mate.&nbsp The excess baggage brought with them needs to be dropped before entering the relationship, also consideration and tact should be cultivated for them to have any chance at happiness.

In most cases a good synastry chart can point out the weaker areas of a relationship and give you many ideas on how to 'cure' it. Compatibility charts are not just for lovers! It would be of tremendous help in choosing friends and even business partners as one persons weakness should be balanced with the other persons strengths, (one may like being quiet and doing the books while the other is out front and center drumming up the business).
